    Summary

    “Bachelor?” Artemy called, causing the doctor to jump to his feet, scrambling to grab something from his coat before meeting the Haruspex’s eyes and relaxing somewhat.
    “Ah, Burakh,” Dankovsky sighed. “Don’t scare – er, startle me like that! I nearly shot you.”
    “You’re one to talk,” Artemy replied, wagging his own firearm. “Having fun there?”
    “Pardon?”
    “The mirrors.”

    Summary

    ..darling.. you carried |weight| today. i observed your telomeres short|ening under stress load. . cortisol elev|ation. adrenaline residue in bloodstream. stressed.|. out.

    The words form slowly, each one accompanied by a pulse of warmth that spreads through Lodi's body like whiskey going down. His telomeres. IX is concerned about his telomeres.

    "I'm okay," Lodi manages, though his voice comes out ragged. The warmth has pooled low in his abdomen now, radiating outward in waves that make his thighs tense involuntarily. "Just need to lie down for a bit."


    IX and Lodi figure some things out about just how good IX can make him feel.
